Riaan Abalawuli bezobumfihlo base-Europe banqume ukuthi ukusebenzisa kwe-Meta ukukhangisa komuntu siqu ku-Facebook, Instagram, naku-WhatApp kwephula imithetho yokuvikela idatha.
Ngokukhethekile, i-European Data Protection Board (EDPB), iqembu labalawuli bobumfihlo be-EU, inakho akuvumelekile isinqumo sangaphambili se-Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) esivumele i-Meta ukuthi yeqe izimfuneko zemvume yokusebenzisa idatha ngemigomo yesevisi yezinhlelo zayo zokusebenza.
Ngaphansi kwe-European General Data Protection Regulation, eqale ukusebenza ngo-2018, abathengi kumele bavunyelwe ukuthi banqume ukuthi izinkampani zingasebenzisa idatha yazo yomuntu siqu. Ngokushesha ngemva kokusebenza komthetho, iqembu lobumfihlo i-Noyb wafaka isikhalazo ngokumelene ne-Google, Instagram, WhatsApp, kanye ne-Facebook ngezinsolo zokusebenzisa idatha yomuntu siqu ngaphandle kwemvume eyanele.
I-Meta, eyaba inkampani yabazali baka-Facebook ngonyaka odlule, yazama ukusho ukuthi ukusetshenziswa kwayo kolwazi lomuntu siqu ekukhangiseni nasekulandeleni kwakudingeka ngokwenkontileka – okuhlukile kwemvume ye-GDPR evame ukunwetshwa kudatha edingekayo, njengamakheli omgwaqo lapho kuthunyelwa izimpahla.
UMax Schrems, ummeli wezobumfihlo wase-Austrian, ummeli, kanye nomsunguli we-Noyb, uthe i-Meta, kunokuba inikeze abasebenzisi bohlelo lokusebenza inketho ye-yebo-noma-cha yezikhangiso eziqondene nawe, ivele yahambisa isigatshana semvume kumigomo nemibandela yezinhlelo zokusebenza zayo.
“Lokhu akukhona nje okungalungile kodwa ngokusobala akukho emthethweni,” kusho uSchrems in isitatimende. “Asiyazi enye inkampani ezame ukungayinaki i-GDPR ngale ndlela yokuzikhukhumeza.”
Umgwaqo omude nomazombezombe
Ngemva kweminyaka engaphezu kwemine, i-EDPB ekugcineni ibonakala ivumelana ne-Schrems.
“Lokhu kuyigalelo elikhulu enzuzweni yeMeta e-EU,” kusho uSchrems. “Abantu manje badinga ukubuzwa ukuthi bafuna idatha yabo isetshenziselwe izikhangiso noma cha. Kufanele babe nempendulo ethi ‘yebo noma cha’ futhi bangashintsha umqondo wabo noma nini. Lesi sinqumo siqinisekisa futhi inkundla yokudlala nabanye abakhangisi. lokho kudinga futhi ukuthola imvume yokungena.”
Lesi sinqumo sisho ukuthi i-Irish DPC – eyengamele i-Meta e-EU – kulindeleke ukuthi ikhiphe isinqumo somphakathi kanye nezinhlawulo ezingaba ezibalulekile phakathi nenyanga.
NgokukaNoyb, isinqumo se-EDPB sisho ukuthi i-Meta kufanele iguqule izinhlelo zayo zokusebenza ukuze inikeze indlela yokuzisebenzisa ngaphandle kokunikeza idatha yomuntu siqu. Ayikuvimbeli ukuboniswa kwezikhangiso ngokuvamile.
Isinqumo akukabi ngujuqu: I-Meta inenketho yokukhalaza ngokutholakele kwe-EDPB kanye nesinqumo se-Irish DPC, noma nini lapho kuvela khona. Futhi i-ad biz yenze umkhuba ukwenza kanjalo.
I-Meta ihlawuliswe ngaphezu kwezigidi ezingama- $ 900 emacaleni obumfihlo ngonyaka odlule nengxenye: Cishe amaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-276 ngoNovemba 2022. ngokwehluleka ukuvikela izinombolo zocingo zomsebenzisi kusuka ku-inthanethi; cishe amaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-402 ngoSepthemba 2022 yehluleka ukuvikela idatha yezingane ku-Instagram; kanye namaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-266 ngoSepthemba 2021 Ukuqoqwa kwedatha ye-WhatsApp.
I-Meta njengamanje inselele izinqumo ze-Instagram ne-WhatsApp. Inkundla yezokuxhumana ayizange iphendule ngokushesha esicelweni sokuphawula ngokuthi ihlose ukuphendula kanjani esinqumweni se-EDPB. ®
